Two weeks after he filed a lawsuit against YouTube and its parent company Google over allegations they engaged in a “censorship campaign” against his remarks about vaccines, Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will have his case addressed at an emergency hearing on Aug. 16.

Federal Magistrate Judge Nathanael Cousins set the emergency hearing on Mr. Kennedy’s request for a temporary restraining order “to bar Google from censoring his speech on YouTube during the 2024 campaign,” according to an Aug. 14 statement from the candidate’s campaign.
